I tagged along with KK and DSM on Saturday morning as they headed out to do some cycling training at The Cradle. Luckily for me, I’m not training for anything specific so while they sped off, I used the time to ‘dilly-dally’ out on the road all by myself with no time or distance pressures.
I stopped quite a few times on the road to take some pics with my phone and was struck by the beauty of my surroundings. The air was crisp when we arrived but soon the sun started to warm my back and as I stood next to my bike, all alone, I was taken aback by the silence that engulfed me.
It’s funny, as I runner, I don’t seem to take time to look around me and take it all in. I’m quite focused on the road ahead, my time and my pace. But cycling is different. Unless you’re racing, you do get to do a lot more sight seeing and observing. It was such a stunning morning. I’m so glad I went!
I am just getting back into riding my bike…and I need to do some work on my bike. Any thoughts on a bike stand. My concerns are money (not spending too much or too little) and stability. Any thoughts would be helpful.

Hi Anthony, my bike hangs on the wall in our garage. It’s a really cool bike rack we ordered from http://www.cycloc.com. Go check it out! I can’t seem to post pics in the comments.

Thanks for your comments, and for checking out my hobby blog.
I was thinking more about a work stand, rather than storage… but I do appreciate your idea.
